Ormskirk West Lancs are taking on Barnsley on our artificial green in the Federation of Crown Green Bowls this coming Sunday (11th August) starting at 2pm. Spectators are more than welcome to come along and support the Ormskirk Team and see some top quality bowlers in action – admission is free!
There was a great afternoon’s bowling on a much improved grass green for the 2024 Chairman’s Cup Competition. 10 pairs took part and these were split into two groups for a round robin. Each game was played over 7 ends.
In Group A Chris Webster & Kev Maher narrowly won the group with a +6 points difference, just narrowly ahead of Margaret Copeland & Peter Grimes who finished with +5 points.. Group B was even closer with Ian Gill & Laura Williams (who has only played a few times as part of our beginners sessions) and Matt Finch & John Davies drawing on +7 and also on the points scored (28) so Ian & Laura topped the group by virtue of the result between the two.
The Semi Finals were both close affairs. Marg & Peter overcame Ian & Laura 6-5, winning on the final bowl, Peter bowling a wonder bowl to carry the jack after Ian & Laura were lying game. The second semi was also close with Chris & Kev just overcoming Matt & John 8-6.
On to the final and a repeat of an earlier round robin game which Peter & Marg had taken 6-5. However, Chris’ leading was exemplary and, with 1 end to go Chris & Kev wrapped it up to take the 2024 Chairman’s Cup. Thanks to all those that entered and also came along to spectate and support.
Our next club competition is a pairs comp run by our Chairman, Steve James. It will be run as a handicap pairs comp with people choosing their pairs in advance. Handicaps to be decided on the day by the Chairman. Round robin leading to a final.
If you wish to take part please e-mail/text/WhatsApp Steve to notify him by the end of the month of your pair.
Please arrive by 12.45 for a prompt start at 1pm. We aim to finish by 4.30pm. £3 entry fee on the day per person.
We had a strong turnout of 20 members on a glorious afternoon. A knockout took place with the losers going into a seperate plate competition.
In the main draw Mike Fagan beat John Leadbetter and Nigel Whitehurst beat Hannah Jones in the semi-finals. The final was closely contested but Mike pulled away to win 21-9.
In the plate Jacky Denning topped her group by 5 points from Dave Roper and Dave Hulse won his group by 6 points from Chris Webster. Jacky was triumphant in the final by 7-3.
It was a great afternoon helped by the weather. Thank you to everyone who took part and a special thank you to Dave Roper and Hannah Jones for their help in co-ordinating.
